Anybody who's had a job they've hated, which is most of us, have held their tongue or pulled punches, literally or figuratively, in order to keep their job. What if you didn't have to?
Personally, that possibility makes me think of so many options I can't choose.

Boss: "AdjoAdjo" where in the hell have you been? You haven't reported to work in a week!
AdjoAdjo: So long Bitches!
"Pop, pop, pop," as I exit the building, busting a few caps in the air!

Well the job I have now I really like so I would give my boss and teammates the courtesy by telling them in person. There have been a few jobs in the past where I worked with jerks in a really tense, unpleasant environment and with sometimes difficult bosses. Quite frankly for those jobs I would email my resignation letter.
"To Whomever It May Concern,
I am filthy a$$ rich as I have just won the lottery. Obviously I won't be coming back to that hellhole of an office anymore. Please mail me my last paycheck (not that I need it ) at the following forwarding address. Until then, if you need to reach me for some reason, call me on my cell phone as I will be taking a 3 week vacation to the Caribbean islands effective today. My personal assistant will be screening my calls and should be able to address any questions. Karma is a motha isn't it....."
Signed,
Your former, hardworking and devoted employee

Did u win the lottery.i want some money.I havn't got a job .So if I had one I would get my first real paycheck.The last paycheck I got was 2 weeks worth of work and only 40 dollars.Because of my sister she made the boss upset.So now I am 19 and I have no Job.So if i won the lottery.I would save that money.Take out enough to get me a driver's liscence,get a nice car not expensive though.I would also go shopping .All of my clothes are handmedowns,and i would keep a Job the rest of my life so when I got old I could retire in my early 40's and then get me a makeover done you know like with the wrinkles that you get when you get older.i would also have a boob job done,and hire a proffesional weight trainer so I could be in shape and healthy.But the money I would save until 40 and the job too then spend the rest wisely.

I would do my best to actually get fired but not take the first opportunity. That is to say if I was hauled into the office and a warning was written I would accept it but continue untill the last possible moment when they have not choice. At that point I would then reveal that It was all a joke (trying to keep on good terms with those i like). I would also pull as many pranks on coworkers as I could and just be a total happy-go-lucky fool until given the pink slip.
Then rub it into everyone about my winnings.

I like my job, but yes I'd quit working if I won a million dollars. I'm a nurse, so I would give 4-6 week notice. To just walk out could lead to losing the license I worked so hard to earn.

The job I have right now where I work 80+ hours and get $650 for my efforts, of course, but if I owned a company, no cause I had a job-career that I loved and I could invest more money into it.

It isn't my personal dream, but a co-worker has told me that if he won the lottery he would go into his boss' office, stand on the desk in front of him, drop his pants and take a dump on bossy-poo's desk. He would then grab the closest memo, wipe his *** with it, hand the defiled memo to el jefe and say "this is what you can do with this job." Classy? No. Pithy? Yes.

I would probably leave quietly. being mean never helps, and it may come back to bite you one day. Plus, the media will know that thee was a lottery winner in the area. If you go in and make a big scene at work, they may figure out that you are the winner. i would want to keep it a secret, myself...

I think the chance is very slim of any one ever winning the Lottery..( But Just Say) Take This Job and Shove it.

I work at a call center, so I would answer the phone and interrupt people all day with cheeky remarks and hang up on the ones that annoyed me... and when someone called me on it I would then quit... if not I would go back for days and days until I got bored.

I guess since my job is collecting my husbands paychecks, I guess I'd tell him he would have the fun in quitting his job the way he wants.
I worked 18 years in a hell hole, but I didn't do anything when I left, I just didn't show up and never went back.
